Description

Games have had a special place in research since the beginnings of artificial intelligence. For example, board games serve as a vivid demonstration of the performance of current algorithms. In recent years, more and more use has been made of game theoretical concepts to describe and shape strategic decision-making situations in multi-agent systems. The aim of this seminar is to gain an insight into the current state of research.
